At first I thought it was a fluke, but now I have seen these two on ebay

MINI1

MINI2

What is the deal with the incomplete Aero Kit painting...either they were careless when painting or stupidly ignored the wheel arches...what gives

Plus they look terrible

 

Uhhhh.... I don't think the Aero kit comes with painted wheel arches.

 

If you can get a prepainted Aero Kit, they have properly masked off the wheel arches so they blend in with the rest of the car. This is just a case of somebody gave the body shop the pieces and said paint them. They didn't think or care to keep the wheel arches black. Icky

 

I'm a little worried about the fact that Mini1 doesn't even know what they are selling. It's listed as having a turbo.

 

Unfortunately, the firewall out here has e-bay blocked, so I can only imagine, but several of the aero kits I've seen in Denver were not painted all that well - finish was okay, color match was hideous - I saw not one, but two liquid yellows that the aero kits were at least two shades off. . .

 

Some people out there actually prefer to leave the flares black but most of them have them painted also and/or have the areo pieces masked and painted black so the lines flow down unto the bumper covers.

 

I agree, they look horrible...it wouldn't take that much time or money for that matter to have the flares painted to match, and would look ten times better.

Wow..it's turbo, too!


Please see my thread on Aero Kit Paint services. All work guaranteed.

 

Turbo hey, say I have a bridge for sale Cheap!

 

Uhhh yeah... the aero kit does not come with wheel arches included. You have to pay extra to get those painted to match.

 

I didn't even notice the "Tur" in the listing
